The next time a Rabbi dies and you post it please let me know. I will jump in and criticize him and lets see what the reaction is.
i guess this is where i got confused
May you slide down the banister of happiness & get many splinters of success up your career.

Like most here.  :)
RIP thread is not for criticizing the person. He does not seem to understand that. So I chose a person he thinks highly of to make my point. In no way shape or from did I make a comparison between the two because there is none.

Wiki updated with hyperlink to post by @aygart above, but I really think this entire thread would be better off deleted than wikified. Take the positive parts and put them back in the master RIP thread.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

And I think Trump seems to be delivering on those (despite the fact that the road there might be bumpy). Trade deal signed with Mexico today (I have no idea what the details are, but the bottom line is that there's something there that was signed by both parties.
I know this was written pages ago, but it was less than 24 hours, so you'll forgive me for bringing it back up.

I mentioned this in the other thread where someone brought up the Mexico deal. You're praising something you admit you don't know anything about, simply because something was signed. Never mind that nothing was actually signed (Nieto would have to actually sign before he leaves in November, and they've stated they're not doing a standalone deal, Canada has to join the convo). Did you praise the Iran deal because 'something was signed by both countries'? Can you articulate how you think NAFTA was bad for the US, and how this deal fixes those issues? What we've gained and what we've given away here? I'm comfortable assuming the answer is no on all counts, so I'm not sure why you feel Trump is delivering, besides the fact that he's not the other guys.

Swindle says he was always mindful that McCain turned down an early release form the POW camp to stay with his men.
"It tells me he was a man for whom honor, integrity and loyalty are everything, and he lived that to the day he died," Swindle says.

The Navy awarded McCain the Silver Star for his “conspicuous gallantry” while he was imprisoned for nearly five-and-a-half years. He also received the Distinguished Flying Cross, three Bronze Stars, two Purple Hearts and the Prisoner-of-War medal.

Unbelievable speeches being given. Biden gave a great one but should have left out the veiled political stuff.
